This memoir was written to honor my youngest brother''s influence over my life, the good, the bad, and the ugly, of living with a Down Syndrome sibling. It tells the story of the children of my family, despite our parents'' frailties, remaining committed to each other through life''s many changes and separations. Who I am today is directly related to who I needed to become.
